Technical Report on the Estimation of Impact of the Rural Microenterprise Finance Project EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The main objective of this special evaluation study was to assess the extent to which selected Asian Development Bank (ADB) microfinance projects have reduced the poverty of rural poor households and improved the socioeconomic status of women in developing member countries. Bangladesh, Philippines, and Uzbekistan were selected for the study, representing three of the five operational regions of ADB. The projects selected for in-depth review were: (i) the Rural Microenterprise Finance Project in the Philippines; (ii) Participatory Livestock Development Project in Bangladesh; (iii) Second Participatory Livestock Development Project in Bangladesh; (iv) Rural Livelihood Project in Bangladesh; and (v) the Small and Microfinance Development Project in Uzbekistan. The study used quantitative tools to measure the impact of microfinance on rural households for the Rural Microenterprise Finance Project in the Philippines. A carefully designed nationwide survey was conducted covering 2,274 households in 116 barangays (villages) and 28 microfinance institutions. Smaller sample surveys—intended to generate the socioeconomic profile of target groups reached by ADB microfinance projects rather than measure impact quantitatively—were undertaken in Bangladesh and Uzbekistan. Qualitative tools to gather information on intra-household dynamics were used to assess the effects of microfinance on the status of women. A total of 27 focus group discussions were undertaken in three countries. Over 200 female microfinance clients participated in these discussions. Sample surveys covered 566 women microfinance clients in the Philippines and 200 in Bangladesh. These surveys were designed to complement and validate the focus group discussions. The impact study in the Philippines used a quasi-experimental design that required treatment and comparison areas for each of the 28 microfinance institutions. These areas were geographically different from each other. Two types of household respondents were covered by the surveys: (i) households that received microcredit loans, and (ii) households that did not receive microcredit loans but qualified to join the program. Econometric estimation techniques were used to estimate the impact of microfinance on the beneficiaries. Controls were applied to address biases known to be associated with microfinance impact assessments. The average loan size was about P5,500. The results of the econometric estimates show that the availability of microcredit loans had positive and mildly significant impacts (significance level of 10%) on the per capita income of the beneficiaries. The income of those that received microcredit loans increased by P5,222 per year compared with those that did not receive a loan. In terms of aggregate impact, this translates to P8.6 billion for the total of 1.6 million women clients reached with microcredit. Consistent mildly positive impacts were also found for per capita total expenditures and per capita food expenditures. However, the impact on per capita income and expenditures was found to be regressive (i.e., the impact was negative on households with per capita incomes of less than P34,428, and become positive only for households with per capita incomes above P56,200). This result is similar to other studies on the provision of microcredit in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and northeastern Thailand. The finding suggests that targeting microfinance on the poorest households may not be the most appropriate way to help them escape poverty. The projects selected by the poorest households to finance with microcredit loans did not generate sufficient profit to increase household income. iv The Rural Microenterprise Finance Project helped to reduce the dependence of participating households on other loans such as informal moneylenders and more expensive loans from financial institutions. In addition, the proportion of participating households with savings accounts increased, as did the amounts in these savings accounts. All these improved the consumption smoothing capabilities of participating households. The Philippine microcredit program had a significant impact on the number of microenterprises and the number of persons employed in them, reflecting that the program was designed to cater to the entrepreneurial poor. In terms of outreach, the Rural Microenterprise Finance Project was able to reach poor households, but not in significant numbers. Based on the Philippine official poverty line, the household survey found that only 10% of the respondents were classified as poor and 4% as subsistence poor. This is an important finding since the project was originally designed to reach the ultra poor. There is a need to reexamine (i) the targeting approach and mechanisms used by the microfinance institutions, and (ii) whether microfinance institutions have incentives to reach poor households given their concerns about loan repayment and their financial sustainability. In Bangladesh, the households participating in the Second Participatory Livestock Development Project (average monthly income of Tk3,762) tend to be poorer than those in the Rural Livelihood Project (average monthly income of Tk5,430). The Rural Livelihood Project beneficiaries tended to be better off than the poor. In Uzbekistan, the clients of the Savings and Credit

It was first reported in 1975 among males in Panay Island. Migrants from Panay Island occupied the region of South Cotabato in Mindanao with its capital Koronadal City. The estimated population of the region is 912,957 as of 2015 and the dominant ethnicity, comprising 51%, are from Panay Island. This paper calls attention to this migration and aimed to identify cases and describe the clinical picture of XDP in Koronadal City. A descriptive study using the screening questionnaire for XDP was used per barangay to look for possible cases. Cases were confirmed through interview and assessment by a movement disorder specialist. Four cases of XDP from Koronadal City were seen. They were all male, presenting with generalized dystonia. The phenomenology of these cases is similar to the 2011 study involving 312 patients.

  • Binanog Dance
    Gluck Classroom Fellow: Jemuel Jr. Barrera-Garcia Ph.D. Student in Critical Dance Studies: Designated Emphasis in Southeast Asian Studies Flying Without Wings: The Philippines’ Binanog Dance Binanog is an indigenous dance from the Philippines that features the movement of an eagle/hawk to the symbolic beating of bamboo and gong that synchronizes the pulsating movements of the feet and the hands of the lead and follow dancers. This specific type of Binanog dance comes from the Panay-Bukidnon indigenous community in Panay Island, Western Visayas, Philippines. The Panay Bukidnon, also known as Suludnon, Tumandok or Panayanon Sulud is usually the identified indigenous group associated with the region and whose territory cover the mountains connecting the provinces of Iloilo, Capiz and Aklan in the island of Panay, one of the main Visayan islands of the Philippines. Aside from the Aetas living in Aklan and Capiz, this indigenous group is known to be the only ethnic Visayan language-speaking community in Western Visayas. SMILE. A pair of Binanog dancers take a pose They were once associated culturally as speakers after a performance in a public space. of the island’s languages namely Kinaray-a, Akeanon and Hiligaynon, most speakers of which reside in the lowlands of Panay and their geographical remoteness from Spanish conquest, the US invasion of the country, and the hairline exposure they had with the Japanese attacks resulted in a continuation of a pre-Hispanic culture and tradition. The Suludnon is believed to have descended from the migrating Indonesians coming from Mainland Asia. The women have developed a passion for beauty wearing jewelry made from Spanish coins strung together called biningkit, a waistband of coins called a wakus, and a headdress of coins known as a pundong.

The KALAHI–CIDDS National Community-Driven Development Project (KC-NCDDP) spans the whole archipelago, reaching 15 regions, 63 provinces, and 900 municipalities. Poor municipalities covered by the program abound the most in Region V (Bicol) and Region VIII (Eastern Visayas) which are along the country’s eastern seaboard often visited by typhoons. The 900 municipalities do not include yet the 104 poor municipalities in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM). The NCDDP will include the ARMM, with the development partners supporting the required capacity building for program implementation and the government providing grants for community subprojects. The new regions in the program are Regions I, II, and III, which have small number of poor municipalities. 2. Of particular concern are the provinces that have been affected by Typhoon Yolanda (international name: Haiyan) in 8 November 2013: Eastern Samar, Western Samar, Leyte, Southern Leyte, Cebu, Iloilo, Capiz, Aklan, and Palawan, and by the Visayas earthquake of 15 October 2013: Bohol and Cebu.

This particular inquiry draws attention to the history of the Ati people ( also known as Aetas, Aytas, Agtas, Batak, Mamanwa ) as the first settlers of the islands. In contrast to this, a festive reenactment portraying Ati people dancing in the tourism sponsored Dinagyang and Ati-Atihan festival will be explored. This paper aims to compare the displacement of the Ati as marginalized minorities in contrast to how they are celebrated and portrayed in the dance festivals. Methodology My own field research was conducted through interviews of three Ati communities of Panay, two Dinagyang Festival choreographers, and a discussion with cultural anthropologist, Dr. Alicia P. Magos, and a visit to the Museo de Iloilo. Further data was conducted through scholarly research, newspaper readings, articles, and video documentaries. Due to limited findings on the Ati, I also searched under the blanket term, Negrito ( term used during colonial to post colonial times to describe Ati, Aeta, Agta, Ayta,Batak, Mamanwa ) and the Austronesians and Austo-Melanesians ( genetic ancestor of the Negrito indigenous group ).
